which clearly states that the distributive property is a generalization of the distributive law

Let me say again, people calling a Koala a Koala bear doesn't mean it actually is a bear. Stop reading wikipedia and pick up a Maths textbook.

You seem to be under the impression that the distributive law and distributive property are completely different statements

It's not an impression, it's in Year 7 Maths textbooks.

this certainly is not 7th year material

And yet it appears in every Year 7 textbook I've ever seen.

Looks like we're done here.

If you don't want to see why you're wrong that's your thing, but I tried. I can just say, try to re-read the math textbook you took pictures of, and try to understand it.
